Not long ago, when the club was bought by Todd Boehly, Chelsea spent hundreds of millions of euros, reaching the billion mark, to get a makeover. However, the club struggled a lot. The fact of focusing everything on youth has logically been a brake on the development of the workforce. Mauricio Pochettino, tasked with repairing Graham Potter’s mistakes, did not necessarily succeed in doing better. Now under the control of Enzo Maresca, the club is doing much better. It must be said that since then, all these young people have had time to progress. That said, management has not said its last word and intends to strike another big blow on the transfer market.
According to information reported by TEAMtalkChelsea would have two potential targets in sight. The priority track is the one leading to Tomas Araujo. The Benfica central defender, aged only 22, is favored by many major European clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain. However, the latter has a release clause of 100 million euros. And there is a good chance that the Portuguese club will not be tempted for less than that. Otherwise, FootballTransfers reveals that the name of Illya Zabarnyi also really appeals to the London management. The Bournemouth player would undeniably cost less (€32M estimated according to Transfer market).
